SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 567,390, dated September 8, 1896.

Application filed May 4, 1896. Serial No. 590,135. (No model.)

- connected as to constitute a continuous skeleton-of great strength.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a vertical central section of my improved garbage-receptacle. Fig. 2 is a plan and Fig. 3 a bottom view thereof. Fig.Y 4. is a perspective view of the upper portion of one of the fenders e.

The letter ce represents the sheet metal body of a garbage-can, having the usual bot- To the lower face of this bottom there are attached by rivets@2 a number of diagonal metal straps b, that have the downwardly-bent ends or anges b. Around the lower edge of the can-body there is slipped a tightly-tting ringl c, that projects a considerable distance below the bottom a', and constitutes afoot'. The ring c incloses the strap c, so as to embrace the flanges b', and is held in place by being connected to such iianges by means of rivets d. i

e c are a series of upright fenders or ribs that extend from the top to the bottom of the can-body and serve to protect such body against injury. The fenders c terminate in iiattened perforated lugs e' c2, of which the lower lugs @glare attached to the ring c, preferably by the same rivets dthat attach such ring to the langes b.' The upper lugs c of fenders e are connected by rivets f to a ring g, that embraces the upper edge of the canbody a. y

' It will be seen that by my invention all the exposed parts of the can-body are properly protected, and that the various parts constituting ,the protecting device are rso combined with each other that they form a continuous and self-supporting skeleton of great strength.

If desired, a false bottom h may be placed upon the bottom a, so as to strengthen said bottom and to prevent the heads ofthe rivets a2 from tearing out.

l. A garbage-receptacle composed of a canbody, a pair of rings, embracing the upper and lower ends thereof, upright ribs riveted to such rings, and a series of straps that are inclosed by the lower ring .and are riveted to such ring and to the can-bottom, substantially as speciiied. Y

2. The combination of a can-body with a series of diagonal straps riveted to the canbottom and having flanged ends, alower ring inclosing and `riveted on its inner side to such iianged ends, an upper ring embracing the upper end of the can-body, and a series of upright fenders riveted to the rings, substantially as specified.
